Chapter 364: Who is this a death knell for?
Murong Mian entered the palace and saw that he was taken to Fengming Palace, his dark eyes flickered, but there was no change on his face.
Liu Fu greeted him at the door, with a solemn expression, his eyes were full of grief, he bowed in a proper manner, and his voice was a little hoarse: "Lord, the emperor is waiting for you inside." ”
Murong Mian nodded and strode in.
The tall hall, the huge pillars stood silently, he walked all the way in, no one touched him, the lights were not very bright, as if walking in the barren wilderness, his heart welled up with sadness.
knew that there would be this day, but I didn't expect it to be so soon, the queen who was loved and admired by the people of the world, the woman who was the mother of the world, passed away quietly in this cold night. There are only a few days left before the end of the year, but she can't wait.
Pushing open the thick carved mahogany door, the light in the room was still not very bright, and the layers of curtains hung low, covering the carved bed densely.
The Emperor sat on his footrest, his face pale, his eyes hollow, his cheeks sunken, his chin blue and black, and his gaunt almost human shape.
Murong Mian called him softly, "Imperial brother." ”
The emperor raised his head mechanically, his cloudy eyes were full of water, he looked at Murong Mian like a stranger, dazed, helpless, looking at him, half loud, gurgling in his throat, and his voice was obscure: "You are here, your imperial sister-in-law, gone." ”
Although he knew that this was the result, and heard the emperor say it with his own ears, Murong Mian's heart still tingled, "Brother Huang's day mourns." ”
The emperor shook his head, and in the dim light, tears were clearly spilled down.
Murong Mian looked at him quietly, no matter what the emperor had done, at this moment, his sadness and grief went straight to the bottom of his heart, The queen left, and took his soul away, he was no longer the supreme son of heaven, just a frustrated man who lost his beloved wife.
"The queen valued you very much during her lifetime, and you will handle her posthumous affairs, and I don't worry about others."
"Yes, my brother will take the order."
"I'll take the coffin in three days, and let me accompany her again."
“…… Good. ”
"You stay in the palace these days, and you can do everything by yourself, so you don't need to ask me."
"Yes."
The Emperor waved his hand, "You go." ”
Murong Mian leaned over, turned to leave, the door closed silently behind him, he turned to look, and in the narrow gap, the emperor got up and staggered towards the big bed.
In this world, only life and death cannot be defeated, not even emperors.
Murong Mian stood in this darkness and sighed, and suddenly made a decision, when the queen's funeral was over, he would take Bai Qianfan back, no matter how dangerous the road ahead was, he wanted her to be by his side and in his sight.
——
There are still four days before the New Year, and on this morning, the people of Lin'an City suddenly heard the death knell in their sleep, a long sound, and a long sound came after a while.
People panicked and ran out of the house, asking each other, "Who died?" Who died? ”
Bai Qianfan sat in the carriage, and when he heard the death knell coming from the nearby mountains, he was also shocked, and looked at each other with Laurel Yuexiang.
Yuegui stuck her head out and asked the handlebar style: "Big brother, who is this bell for?" ”
The handlebar style is also very puzzled, "The emperor is in the prime of spring and autumn, should he always be ......"
The one who can make the temple ring the death knell is either the emperor or the queen, thinking of the queen's sick body, Bai Qianfan chuckled in his heart, and his face changed suddenly.
She muttered, "It's the Queen." ”
Laurel and moonshade were all shocked, and the queen died......
"Stop." Bai Qianfan suddenly shouted, tears already flowing from his eyes.
The handlebar type saw her like this, and it was very strange, "Girl, ...... you are"
Bai Qianfan jumped out of the car, bowed in the direction of Lin'an City, and looked up again, already in tears.
The queen mother is a good person, she always smiles when she talks to her, she doesn't hold a shelf, she is kind and amiable, she knows that she likes fruit dew, and she specially asked someone to send it to the house, why doesn't such a good person live long?
She whimpered and cried, bowed and worshipped, and Yue Gui stepped forward to pull her with red eyes, "It's important to hurry, we haven't left the realm of Lin'an yet." ”
Bai Qianfan got up, sobbed and followed her into the carriage, still too sad in her heart, holding Yuegui's arm, burying her head and crying.
The handlebar asked, "Who died at the bottom?" Why did the girl cry so sadly? ”
Yuexiang said, "My sister is kind-hearted, and she is sad to step on an ant for a long time, and now that she is dead, she must not cry in the dark, let's go, and get the next town to catch up with dinner." ”
The handlebar shook his head, and said with some embarrassment: "Even the most noble person in the world, birth, old age, sickness and death, there will be a catastrophe." ”
It was still very early, the sky was grayish-white, with a faint reddish light, and the mountains and forests were all on both sides, and in the silence only the crisp horse bells and the sound of the wheels pressing against the ground could be heard.
Bai Qianfan couldn't stop crying, tears soaked half of Yuegui's sleeves, Yuegui gently patted her back, and whispered comfortingly: "Don't cry, people can't be resurrected after death, Niangniang's illness has dragged on for a long time, maybe it will be a relief for her to go." ”
Bai Qianfan cried for the queen before, but later, she cried for herself.
With the queen is a dead farewell, with Mo Rongmian is a life and a separation, pretending not to care, thinking that it will always pass, will always forget, but at this moment, it is getting farther and farther away from Lin'an City, and she has never felt the pain of parting so clearly as now.
After making a decision, she was always looking forward to, imagining, looking forward to a new life in the future, she was actively preparing, planning all the matters of the escape, these things occupied all her time and energy, she had no chance to think about anything else, but this moment still came, so suddenly, with the overwhelming momentum in her heart rolled up a storm and waves, once the suppressed emotions came back, she was pressed down, that deep pain is more uncomfortable than death.
This time, she really never saw him again, completely disappeared from his life, and became strangers to him from then on.
She loves Murong Mian, but she doesn't want to lose herself so much that she doesn't want to be the second Xiu Yuanshuang, and she spends her life lifeless in the deep mansion, so she wants to go, she must go.
Parting is like being stretched into a long line, one end is in her hands, and the other end is still stuck to the Chu Palace, this line is stretched longer and thinner and thinner as the carriage moves forward, and she knows that one day this line will be broken somewhere.
It is always after crying and pain that people can grow up, this is the case when the nurse left, and it is the same now, she raised her sleeves to wipe away her tears, and looked out the window with her eyes firm.
A red sun was rising, staining the mountains and forests red, the gloomy clouds were scattered, and ten thousand golden rays of light were sprinkled on the earth.
